Chapter 472 The Necromancer’s Legacy’s Partial Completion

The little bottle containing a little bit of liquid is as clear as a purified mineral drinking water in the real world. And despite being called Holy Water, it doesn't have any apparent effects on anything, except when it is used against the undead.

"AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

The Sixth Commandment screamed. A scream of death and despair. As the Holy Water poured all over his body, the water became acidic the moment it touches his body. Imagine taking a bath using any kind of corrosive acid that can melt your flesh in just a few seconds? That is how the Sixth Commandment is currently experiencing the Holy Water bath as I pour the contents of the bottle into the rotten body.

Burnt flesh and rotten smell all merged together, making a very disgusting smell that even my controlled urges to puke got the best of me and I have to move away to avoid smelling the disgusting crap directly into my nose. It stings and it is disgusting that I wished I haven't directly stood near the guy while pouring the Holy Water.

I went to Sigma and handed her the remaining contents of the bottle.

"You finish the battle. That way, the quest will count as completed as I didn't deal the final blow."

Sigma immediately understood what I said and received the Holy Water from my hands and went to the spasming Sixth Commandment and dumped all of the contents into the body of the rotten Sixth Commandment and it took a little bit of time before the guy stopped moving. At long last, he died, and with the Sixth Commandment's death is the removal of the curse. Releasing all of the reduced stats back to us, and returning them all back to where they once belonged.

[You have killed the Sixth Commandment!]

As the body of the Sixth Commandment disintegrates, a shiny fragment dropped from the body of the Sixth Commandment and went to me, disappearing upon contact with my body.

[You have received the sixth part of the Necromancer's Legacy! You have partially completed the Legacy. Due to this feat, part of the Necromancer's Legacy can now be used. Refer to the Necromancer's Skill Tree to look for the changes.]

I didn't expect to see this, to be honest. I only collected three parts of this and who knows how long before I can complete it but to think I can use the partial power of the Necromancer Legacy is already something else. I didn't open it just yet as the place is collapsing after the death of the Sixth Commandment. The bone walls started to scream and the bones are rattling. I grab all of the drops and put them in my inventory. I don't need the items so I will be dividing them later on for everyone once we are out.

Before I can go and leave, the Versatile Weapon is shaking a lot, which means the Shadow Dragon wanted to devour Elder Lich. I didn't even think twice and let the Shadow Dragon do so. I was about to pull it out from my sheath but the shadow dragon just blended into the floor and went under the corpse and devoured it by letting it sink into the ground before retreating back to the Versatile Weapon. I didn't expect to see that way of devouring from the Shadow Dragon but that is something good to know for the future.

"Guys! Everything is collapsing! We have to leave now!" Chase panicked.

"Crap! Let's make a run for it!" Hagane also panicked.

"Don't panic! Alpha! Get your *ss here and help us get out of here!"

Sigma then summoned one of the two snakes that she said to have been tamed before I joined according to her and the others.

"Get on everyone. Alpha! Time to check how well your agility does in this situation!"

The snake seems to be terrified of Sigma but it seems to also have the resolve to go too and nodded. It waited for everyone to get on its body before it speed through the falling boulders and rocks. And to be quite frank, I wasn't expecting a fast movement but when the snake moved, it was so fast that a few seconds after we ride on its back, we arrived already in the middle area of the pit.

Alpha just bulldozed its way back to the top and those rocks that are about to fall to us, Alpha quickly deflects them with its tail like it already predicted where the rocks will hit. With the precise way to evade and the right time to strike, you can say that Alpha all hit the marks. I never expected Sigma to dominate over a snake and make it so that it will obey every order she orders it to do.

When we are about to reach the top, the undead that we left behind came are now charging at us. So the undead that the Elder Lich summoned did not die the moment their summoner dies, now that is a rare occurrence since the usual thing, once a necromancer dies, the corpses they used will immediately disintegrate to dust. To think it will continue to move without the summoner is already something else.

But even though there are lots of them, the speed that Alpha made is just too much for the undead to handle. Without a summoner, there isn't much it can do on its own, an undead is weak and brittle on its own. It has an advantage in numbers but that's about it, if it was the same zombie apocalypse similar to those in the mangas, novels, and movies, then it is another story but with undead summoned by the necromancer, I don't even think too much about it.

In no time, we returned to the surface. There are some undead stragglers left behind but they were just bones and rotten flesh that we are able to get rid of them easily without any challenge.

We got off from the back of Alpha and once we all touched the ground, Sigma pat Alpha and thows a big chunk of meat to Alpha like a dog.

"Good job, here is the partial reward. Once we get back you will get a full course alongside with Beta, go and rest for now."

p Alpha happily chomp down the meat before returning to the summon's area of Sigma. She has the talent indeed or maybe she already knows how to do it, I don't really care much.

As the pit started to collapse, we watch it fall to the bottom alongside with some of the undead that has yet to meet their eventual demise. With the rocks and boulders falling pieces by pieces, no one will survive there unless they can survive being buried underneath the rocks and ruins that were also detaching after the death of the Sixth Commandment.

"Sigma, here is the heart that you needed. Looks like you all are done huh?"

"Yeah. Time to go home now," Sigma smiled as the darkness that envelopes the area has finally dissipated and revealed that the sun is already setting.

"Looks like we have to camp out for the last time before we go," Sigma looked at everyone and seems to have a simultaneous agreement with the notion.

Everyone left while I turned to look at the pit for the last time before I turned to look at the necklace with six bones hanging in it. I pulled it out after Sigma killed the Sixth Commandment as I have also collected the other's necklaces. I have to hold on these things until the very end I guess. Perhaps this has something to do with all the necromancers I will have to kill in the future.

With the battle putting everyone in exhaustion, most of them have fallen asleep after eating dinner. It might not be the real world but I felt full after eating the food my mother cooked. Once this quest is over, I will have to go and get the cook ex job to learn cooking. Then I have a good reason to experiment on meat and feed it to my pets and also on my followers. I have decent talent in cooking and improving it might even allow me to be on par or surpass my mother in the future.

With everyone relaxed and I have nothing to do, I opened the menu and opened the skill tree directly to the Necromancer's skill tree. I didn't buy any skills on the necromancer class just yet. I barely even use the skills it has before so I don't have any chance to buy any skills that would help me so all I can say is that I still have not skills learned here.

But when I opened it, I already have a few skills unlocked in tiers 1 up to 5. They didn't have all skills unlocked but they have skills that I can use and I am quite sure I never unlocked any of the skill tree's skills due to my main reason of having less chances of using them.

Not only that, but these skills, shouldn't be available for selection in the original necromancer class.
